The Alternative Essential Gilet effectively blocks biting winds in spite of its featherweight. Easy to pack when things warm up, it is entirely made from recycled materials.

As a versatile addition to our Alternative Line, the Alternative Essential Gilet has been entirely made from 100% recycled materials. Lightweight, the extremely dense weave of the recycled polyester offers the same high level of performance and wind protection as material made from virgin synthetics. Easily packable, its two-way zipper slides effortlessly, which makes ventilating simple, and taking it on or off a cinch. It’ll definitely keep the wind from penetrating to your chest, but the super light, breathable mesh on the back side will prevent overheating or moisture build-up. Using the same high-quality materials as found in the men’s version, this women’s specific option has been cut to suit the size and shape of women cyclists.

    Essential

    Perfect gilet for those cool early starts and long descents. Two way zipper is nice for when you need a little extra ventilation. Packs easily in jersey pocket. Love the minimalist style!
